The Ferrari F50 GT (also known as the Ferrari F50 GT1) was a racing derivative of Ferrari F50, intended for use in the BPR Global GT Series to race against other GT1 cars as the McLaren F1 and the Porsche 911 GT1.[1] After the series folded, Ferrari had no reason to produce more after already having produced 3, and those three cars were sold to the public; the prototype and two assembled specially for prominent customers.[citation needed] The entrance of homologation-specials such as the Porsche 911 GT1 in the BPR series led to Ferrari not going forward with the project.[citation needed]The car was co-developed with Dallara.
